Gift Aid

This is a very important way for us to receive a higher amount into our funds at no extra cost to you.

To qualify for Gift Aid, you must pay an amount of UK Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax that is at least equal to the amount that the charity reclaims on your donations in the appropriate tax year (currently 25p for each £1 given). Tax year is 6 April one year to 5 April the next.

For every £10 you donate, we could receive £12.50.

How to Apply

When you make a donation, as long as you agree, click the Yes button, We do all the rest!

What if my circumstances change?

Please notify us if you:

  • Want to cancel a Gift Aid declaration that you have previously made
  • Change your name or home address
  • No longer pay sufficient tax on your income and/or capital gains.

Higher rate tax payers

We can only claim back tax at the basic rate, but that is still worth 25% extra on your donations to us and would make a big difference.

If you pay a higher rate tax, you can claim the difference between the higher rate of tax and the basic rate of tax on your donation back from HMRC. 

Remember to include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.
